Kane guided Weycker and his teammates to this year’s Division 1 State Championship game. It was the first time the Raiders had ever competed at that level. The team fell to Taconic, but Kane and Weycker talk with Cassell about the high points of the season as well as looking forward to next year.

“It was an unbelievable experience from guy one to guy 25,” Kane told Cassell in this week’s episode.

In the final week of the 2017 regular season, the Raiders went 3-0 with wins over Needham, Natick (which clinched a postseason berth) and Medfield.

The Raiders prodded through the Division 1 South sectional with wins over Mansfield, Barnstable, Durfee, and Bridgewater-Raynham for the program’s first sectional title since 2005.

“This year was unlike any other because of what we were able to accomplish in the postseason,” Kane told Cassell.

Weycker, who just finished his sophomore year, is a left-handed hitter and pitcher. He is committed to play baseball at Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, Virginia, after he graduates from Wellesley. He talked with Cassell about the recruitment and selection process.

“I visited them in October. I loved the coaching staff,” he said. “I got a couple of other offers. But in the end, in January, I decided I wanted to be a Hokie.”

Weycker and Kane also talk to Cassell about what’s next for Wellesley as they switch from wood to aluminum bats and as they strive to win the state title.

“There are not a lot of guys leaving,” Kane said. “We’re going to try to win that championship.”
